View Full Version : Guess who I saw tonight. Robot11 07-09-2006, 01:50 AM So I'm training to be a bartender at a local restaurant here in Nee Hampshire. Tonight there was someone special to grace our presence I suppose. I've never read The Catcher in the Rye, but J.D. Salinger came in today. He's not a friendly person so I'm told, he doesn't like people at all. It's just kinda weird, but I suppose he is just a normal person after all. Alma 07-09-2006, 01:59 AM I thought he was dead. Robot11 07-09-2006, 02:05 AM Nope just really really old. gesh 07-09-2006, 02:08 AM Originally posted by Alma I thought he was dead.

Especially after that 18-year-old cunt put some of his personal letters up for auction. gesh 07-09-2006, 02:27 AM Originally posted by JRAWKER Yeah, he's somewhat of a well-known recluse.

Art Of Flesh 07-09-2006, 02:30 AM No one remotely widely known ever comes into the restaurant where I work, though they're said to. Supposedly racecar drivers used to come in there occasionally, and way, way back in the day Elenore Roosevelt stayed there (It's an inn and restaurant). However, I did meet the lady who wrote the Little Bear childrens' books. She was with her sister, and I helped them take their luggage to their room. George Lucas' twin came in there one day, seriously. This guy looked just like him. Robot11 07-09-2006, 02:31 AM Originally posted by gesh Oh? How much did they fetch? For a lot I assume, he doesn't sign his own checks because his autograph is worth so much. JRAWKER 07-09-2006, 03:13 AM 156k. This software developer bought them with the intention to return them. edit: don't quote me on the price. if my memory serves, so much the better. It's definitely not more than a couple thousand either way, though. 1989BCCClasmate 07-09-2006, 10:24 AM one of my favorite authors! very cool...
